Journal #6

Blaming other people for bad things they did not do is a bad problem. Not only does it make you extremely guilty inside, but it could have multiple repercussions as well. This could start a chain link of bad reactions. Let me make an example of a potential situation of blaming others with some bad linked repercussions. Well actually, I will give an example through a fictional story. I am walking down the street one day in the town of Hollywood, California. As I am walking down this fictional street, I begin to grow a strong hunger, and I am very thirsty as well. But what is this that I see? It is a delicious cart stocked with delectable fruits! Now I am very excited. I decide to do a bad thing at this moment. I decide to steal an apple from this vendor. yes, this is a shocking story, i was skeptical while writing it. Anyway, the apple was delicious, but somehow not sastisfying. Maybe it is because of the fact that it is tainted by guilt from my theft. Through any way, it is sour, but my hunger is now satisfied for the most part. Well now as I am continuing to walk down the street, the reprecussions of what I have just done begin ton hit me hard. I know the police will be after me soon if I do not make things right. Now I am not the type of person to go around and make peace wiith every single person. In this story, I am kind of lazy. I see this lovely old grandmother hobbling down trhe street, so I pick her to blame for all my horrible deeds. I get away with the terrible deed of course. but the guilt heavily outweighs the taste of that dreadful apple.
